Hey, this is a hard one for me as im a rookie at pc building. I have a Gaming Max Falcon pc case, i7-7700k with an AIO cooler on. Then I have a 1080Ti FE.

I am wondering is my case able to do water cooling?
What parts would I be looking at? A Full parts list would be great.
I am not looking at anything over the top but not something that is crap.
I was also thinking about just water cooling my GPU to begin with as my CPU temps are fine.
I was looking at the EK watercooling kit where its all aluminum?

Any help would be appreciated

the think about water cooling is that it has practically infinite number of HW combinations that will differ in look, functionality, price etc.
Also custom loops are more of expensive hobby than anything else.
So if you want something quick and dirty, just get NZXT G12 + some compatible AiO and call it a day.
If you have no interest in liquid cooling beyond "i want slightly better temps" - don't go custom loops way, even in a form of kits.
They require attention and maintenance.

According to an amazon review it'll support a dual 140 rad and a dual 120 (YMMV).

Before considering an aluminum based system you need to ask yourself if you can find all the required parts in aluminum? Can you find a aluminum GPU block to go with your EK "gaming" kit? If not then you need to look at EK's slim pro or extreme kit. Which I think are better anyway because they will be broadly more compatible with other components if you want to expand later, which you probably will. Go to EK's site look at their kits and particularly the parts in those kits. Plan out what you want to do put everything in your cart and then sit on it for a week. Review what you have in your cart and what your plan is. Go through it step by step and add anything you forgot. I would go ahead and add a couple 45 and 90 degree adapters. They can do a lot to shorten runs and improve the systems looks.
